New Bertram 50 Launches With Webasto Onboard

For over 50 years, Bertram Yachts has set the standard for luxurious, high-performance offshore sportfish boats and its recently launched Bertram 50 is no exception. Exceling at everything from hardcore fishing to family cruising, it's loaded with high-end amenities such as a Webasto BlueCool S-Series air conditioning system and the availability of a Series 80 Marine Sunroof.

Webasto's BlueCool S-Series air conditioner is completely self-contained and provides highly-efficient ventilation for the Bertram 50's lounge and two cabins. Quiet and compact, it's engineered to run 24/7, even in tropical conditions. Completely plug-and-play, the controller board is easily configured via a PC using the USB interface. Webasto air conditioning is standard on both the Bertram 50 and 61.

Available as an option on the Bertram 50 convertible configuration, Webasto's Series 80 Marine Sunroof is integrated into the roof for a sleek, flush installation. 100% watertight, it opens and closes at the touch of a button with quiet and silky-smooth operation. It adds even more airiness to the boat's already inviting, modern design while providing ventilation and natural light.

"Bertram is an iconic name with a reputation for excellence," said Shaun Hall, Webasto marine OE super yacht HVAC sales manager. "We're proud to be the standard air conditioning solution chosen for their two largest models and excited that they've integrated our Series 80 sunroof into the Bertram 50."

Offered with an open or sport top configuration, the Bertram 50 is an express design. It features two expansive staterooms, with the master's including an en suite head. An additional guest and day head is across from a spacious U-shaped lounge. A massive 178 sq. ft. cockpit provides room for entertaining and serious offshore fishing. With twin CAT C18s, 1,236 gallons of fuel and a Seakeeper 9, there are few places the Bertram 50 can't explore. The website is www.bertram.com.
